An airline charges an extra fee if a suitcase weighs more than 50 pounds. after packing, li’s suitcase weighs 47.75 pounds. which inequality can be used to determine how much more weight can be added to the suitcase without going over the 50-pound weight limit?

For this case, the first thing we must do is define a variable.
 We have then:
 x: additional amount of weight that Li can add.
 We write now the inequality that represents the problem.
 We have then:
 
 
 An inequality that can be used to determine how much more weight can be added to the suitcase without going over the 50-pound weight limit is:
